This is Trisha.
Wife. Daughter. Optimist. Auntie. Teacher. Sister. Friend. -  Amputee -
Trisha’s greatest desire is to add “runner” to that list.

One year ago Trisha lost her leg as a result of an infection following minor surgery in her left foot. She had endured over five years of intense pain and seven surgeries in an attempt to save her leg. In the end she chose to fight for her active lifestyle and they amputated her leg below the knee.

Trisha has worked hard and has made great strides in her first year as an amputee. She dreams of returning to her life long passion of running. Trish has completed rigorous requirements including walking three 5K races in order to qualify for a charity benefit which donates parts needed for a running blade.

Even with the help of the donated parts, there are numerous costs associated with getting a running blade which makes it impossible for Trish to attain on her own.

Ways to help:
-Participate in the yard sale fundraiser being held May 30th. All proceeds go to Trisha's running blade and medical expenses.
- Donate any unneeded items you have to be sold at the yard sale.
- Share Trisha's story via social media or old fashioned word of mouth.
- Donate directly to Trisha's gofundme campaign.


I want to thank everyone for the immense love and support I’ve received from so many loving friends and family!!

All proceeds go toward costs for a running blade, medical expenses, and relocation costs for Trish to return to her calling as a teacher.
